Pop producer and engineer Alan Meyerson was down and out when a chance meeting with Hans Zimmer took his career in a new direction. Thirty years and hundreds of film soundtracks later, Meyerson is Hollywood's first-call score mixer.

We visited Alan in his state-of-the-art Atmos mix room at Zimmer's Remote Control Productions studio complex in Santa Monica, California, to hear his extraordinary life story and find out what's involved in mixing a blockbuster movie score.

Then, in our special bonus feature, Alan takes us on a deep dive into his mix of Mark Mothersbaugh's soundtrack to the Marvel classic Thor: Ragnarok.
